Intended Use
The device is intended for use in obtaining biopsies from soft tissues such as liver, breast, kidney, prostate, spleen, lymph nodes and various soft tissue tumors. For breast biopsy this product is for diagnosis only - not for therapeutic use.
Device Description
The SelectCore™ Variable Throw Biopsy Device is a sterile, disposable device which features a stainless steel cutting cannula and stylet. The device is comprised of a plastic housing that contains the mechanically actuated components. The device offers the user the choice of either single fire or fully automatic modes. A variable throw feature allows the user to choose a throw setting ranging from 10 to 25 mm.
More Information

No
The description focuses on mechanical features and modes of operation, with no mention of AI, ML, or image processing.

No
The device's intended use is "for obtaining biopsies... for diagnosis only - not for therapeutic use." This explicitly states it is not for therapeutic purposes.

Yes
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states, "For breast biopsy this product is for diagnosis only - not for therapeutic use," clearly indicating a diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description clearly states it is a sterile, disposable device with physical components like a stainless steel cutting cannula, stylet, and plastic housing containing mechanically actuated components. This indicates it is a hardware device, not software-only.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD devices are used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment. This device is used to obtain the specimen (the biopsy).
  • The intended use clearly states it's for "obtaining biopsies from soft tissues". This is a procedure to collect a sample, not to analyze it.
  • The device description focuses on the mechanical aspects of obtaining the sample (cutting cannula, stylet, firing mechanism). It doesn't mention any components or processes for analyzing the collected tissue.
  • The performance study compares the quality of samples obtained to a predicate device. This further reinforces that the device's function is sample collection, not analysis.

This device is a biopsy device, which is a surgical instrument used to collect tissue samples. The collected tissue would then be sent to a laboratory for in vitro diagnostic testing.

§ 876.1075 Gastroenterology-urology biopsy instrument.

(a)
Identification. A gastroenterology-urology biopsy instrument is a device used to remove, by cutting or aspiration, a specimen of tissue for microscopic examination. This generic type of device includes the biopsy punch, gastrointestinal mechanical biopsy instrument, suction biopsy instrument, gastro-urology biopsy needle and needle set, and nonelectric biopsy forceps. This section does not apply to biopsy instruments that have specialized uses in other medical specialty areas and that are covered by classification regulations in other parts of the device classification regulations.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (performance standards).(2) Class I for the biopsy forceps cover and the non-electric biopsy forceps. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.
